Friends and cupcakes
So has I said before, one of my greatest friend Ana, went to Ireland to live with her boyfriend and work. Bust last weekend she had made me a surprise from a moment to another I have received a message “ju I am in Lisbon for four days, let´s go eat cupcakes?!”.
Of course I said yes, it had been only three weeks, she had left and I already missed her. So happily I agree, and meet with her and another of our friend Ines, in Tease. A rockabilly café in Lisbon, where not only they have the best cupcakes in town, but you feel very free inside, because all the workers have piercings, tattoos and colorful hairs ( I wanna work there please).
the one in the rigth is mine and the other is Ana
I have chosen a cup cake with marshmallows and nutella, and Ana chose condensed milk with cream and guylian (Belgian chocolate), and we accompanied with bitter Lemonade, to make the contrast. The evening was a blast, the guy at the counter thought we were characters from Sex and city. Because we have spent four hour inside the cofeeshop, laughing a lot, and talking and talking. Remembering all our latest years at college, remembering our past, and trying to find out what will we do in the future. Ana will be back to Ireland, and Ines its undecided between Macau and Canada. Because her boyfriend is a movie director that lives in Spain, where the things are getting worse too. So after she ends her studies, they will be leaving the country.
After Ines left me and Ana, decided to stay behind. And we needed a cheaper place to dine. So we decided to go, to an Chinese illegal restaurant. Why illegal?! Because during the day it´s a home and when night arrive it´s a restaurant. As another friend of mine, that had lived in China, this is one of the most original and truly Chinese cousin, and its very very cheap. I told Ana that I´m having some difficulties speaking in English, so she told “from this moment, we will only speak in English with each other”, of course I have grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!! In the beginning but Ana is stubborn and say “you can complain whatever you want, but do it in English”. So I spend the rest of the night crying all of my feeling out, in English. At beginning I felt like I had a fur ball in my mouth, but at the end it was slightly better. Because Ana its like my soul mate we have been talking and talking for hours. In which I wanted to kill her a thousand times. Because you know, every time I told her I couldn´t do that and this, I was stupid because I wanted to go to Japan…and blabla!!
So after I regain my strength with Ana I have come back home more happy, and with a promise a will visit her at the cold land of Ireland. And that I will keep my strength for me and for her.
